    I love how he blocks the last uppercut with his elbow. Brilliant display of defense but in all seriousness he loses that sequence by throwing no punches.

    Really? Did you see JMM land ANYTHING?

    I would say no one won that sequence? Floyd didnt land as he didnt throw anything, JMM didn't land not for want of trying though?!

    OP and a few others, let me clear up the mystery for you once again, in case you didn't get it the first 4,598 times.

    Everybody knows Floyd is a very skilled boxer, an ATG. Everybody knows Floyd can punch, everybody knows his defense is stellar. That's got nothing to do with why we don't like him.

    We don't like him because he avoids the toughest competition while running his mouth non-stop about how badly he would beat them if he DID fight them. Because he retired rather than face the very tough lineup of welterweights dying to get in the ring with him. Then when Pac stepped up, packed on weight he didn't need and can't carry and ran right thru that lineup, he'd still rather talk **** about Pacquiao and make accusations and fake special rules than fight Pacquiao.

    It's not a question of what Mayweather CAN'T do, it's a question of what he WON'T do.

    I just find him so elusive, resourceful and crafty inside the ring. I question his single POWER punch but the man is great.:thumbsup

    Other than Pac, who I see as an exciting fight, would you say he should fight? I think his reach with the straight right is too much for the shorter Pac Man. I love the aggression from PAC and I want to see the fight.

    Floyd is always going to be about what is best for FLOYD. I can't fault the man for that one and I dont see him ducking anyone. He will fight PAC but I say he will beat him on decision.:bbb

    To be fair no one asked you to post the reason for your irrational dislike of Mayweather....

    He has fought very very good competition, Hernandez, Manfredy, Castillo, Coralles, Hatton, Mosely, JMM, Oscar etc

    If you think otherwise that's your perogative but that isn't what this thread is about if you hadn't noticed. :huh
